Gender diversity is one of the legal sector’s most pressing issues.

Highlighting the current landscape and how we can build a more inclusive future. Join us at 3pm BST on 31st March 2022 to learn more about the progress we have already seen and what more needs to be done to ensure that the industry is fair for all.The relevance of this discussion has only increased in the wake of the pandemic. It has been reported that women have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic in their home and work lives, simultaneously juggling career and caring responsibilities, worsening the imbalance in an already male-dominated industry.
